    Forget Gorizont 14, it's over the western USA.  There is someting more interesting in your sky:  Superbird A (20040, 89041A).
    
    Right now it is located at Azimuth 226, Elevation 52 at your location.  For about 10 minutes each evening it will flash every 11 seconds - sometimes to negative magnitude.
    
    See:

    Rob:  Nagpur, Central India is UTC +5.5 hours.  Do you have an estimated flash window?
